The police arrived at the scene quickly. Because Gu Jiali had committed suicide, the case of Lu Yichen's shooting was declared solved. However, the police were still investigating the origin of Gu Jiali's pistol.
Lu Yichen's funeral was held the next day.
On the day of Lu Yichen's funeral, Gu Xiwan also came, and Chu Lingjue and Qin Yueying stayed with her throughout the process.
Although Gu Xiwan had known Lu Yichen many years ago, she had never met Lu Yichen's parents. At this funeral, Gu Xiwan met Lu Yichen's parents for the first time. Lu Yichen's father always lowered his head and said nothing. After hearing this, Lu Yichen's mother fainted from crying several times.
Gu Xiwan had lost a child, and she had personally experienced the pain of a mother losing her child...
However, Lu Yichen is 21 years old this year, and his parents have an additional 21 years of relationship with him on top of their blood relationship. The pain of a white-haired person giving a black-haired person is something that no one who has ever experienced can understand. Arrived...
After the funeral, Lu Yichen's mother came to Gu Xiwan and said to Gu Xiwan,
"I know you. Yichen showed me your photo when he was in college. At that time, you were Yichen's girlfriend. Your name is Gu Xiwan, right?"
Gu Xiwan nodded and looked at the haggard and pitiful appearance of Lu Yichen's mother up close. She felt even worse and tears fell again.
"You know, Miss Gu, although I don't know why Yi Chen broke up with you a year ago, after he broke up with you, he always mentioned you to me. You are still on his bedside table to this day. Putting your photo shows that he still loves you, but...
But Gu Jiali..."
Speaking of Gu Jiali, Lu Yichen's mother shook her head, calmed down for a moment, and then continued,
"A few months ago, Yi Chen took Gu Jiali to visit me at my workplace. That day, Gu Jiali told me that she was pregnant with Yi Chen's child. She said that she and Yi Chen would get married soon. , she even called me 'Mom' enthusiastically, and I even sent her a red envelope, but...
Miss Gu, I know Gu Jiali is your sister. Doesn’t she love Yi Chen very much? Why did she become like this? Why did she kill my son? Tell me, why?
Why! "
As he spoke, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
"..." Gu Xiwan's lips moved. At this moment, a strong sense of guilt surged in her throat like a tide, making her unable to say a word.
Gu Xiwan understood that Gu Jiali did not go to kill Lu Yichen yesterday. If Lu Yichen had not angered Gu Jiali in order to take the bullet for Gu Xiwan, Gu Jiali might have shot Gu Xiwan and ran away.
In the final analysis, Lu Yichen died to save her.
Qin Yueying supported Lu Yichen's mother and comforted her softly,
"Auntie, no matter what, people cannot be resurrected. Please express your condolences. I believe that people have souls. You and your son will eventually be reunited one day."
"Girl, thank you, I hope that day will come..."
After saying these words, Lu Yichen's mother was helped by a woman to leave.
Gu Xiwan quickly grabbed her and asked,
"Auntie, can you leave me your home address and contact information? I will visit you often in the future."
"No need, my son is gone. I don't want to see you anymore, so I won't think of him when I see you. That's it..."
Lu Yichen's mother walked away without looking back as she spoke.
Gu Xiwan could only ask a relative of Lu Yichen's mother for her home address and contact information.
At first, when Gu Xiwan and Lu Yichen were together, she always heard Lu Yichen say that his family was poor and his parents had a difficult life. Lu Yichen also always wanted to work hard to achieve his own career and achieve his own life value while also making his parents rich. Healthy days.
Lu Yichen sacrificed her life for Gu Xiwan. Gu Xiwan will take over Lu Yichen's long-cherished wish that was not fulfilled. From now on, she will take good care of Lu Yichen's parents no matter how hard and tired she is.
As the sun set, the people at the funeral gradually left, but Gu Xiwan still stood in front of Lu Yichen's tombstone.
The cold wind blew through her hair, withered leaves falling in front of her forehead, she raised her eyes and looked around -
Nanshan Cemetery——
It was not just a coincidence or an arrangement of fate. Gu Shenhai, Zhang Yulian, and Gu Baixue were all buried in this cemetery. Because Gu Jiali no longer had any family members, Gu Jiali's distant relatives hastily buried Gu Jiali's ashes between Gu Shenhai and Gu Baixue. In Zhang Yulian's graveyard, the graveyards of Gu Shenhai, Zhang Yulian, and Gu Jiali are right behind Lu Yichen's tombstone.
"what's on your mind?"
Seeing Gu Xiwan's sad face, Chu Lingjue patted her face with his right hand.
Gu Xiwan suppressed the strange look in her eyes and said calmly,
"nothing."
"Um?"
Chu Lingjue gently took Gu Xiwan into his arms and whispered in her ear,
"Just now, you were looking at the tombstones of Gu Shenhai and Zhang Yulian's family. Gu Shenhai, Zhang Yulian, and Gu Baixue are all dead. Now it's Gu Jiali and Lu Yichen. Do you think their deaths are related to you?"
Gu Xiwan was indescribably shocked.
She didn't expect that Chu Lingjue seemed to be able to read her mind and could clearly guess her thoughts.
Yes!
She shouldn't be thinking about this.
However, in the past few months, Gu Shenhai, Zhang Yulian, Gu Baixue, Gu Jiali, Lu Yichen... these people who had spent time with her had died one after another, and their deaths were all related to her...
This made Gu Xiwan couldn't help but think of Butler Cheng's words——
She is a badass!
Everyone around her will be affected by her bad luck and will not get good results!
"well!"
Gu Xiwan sighed in frustration and raised her eyes to look at Chu Lingjue's extremely handsome face. Her eyes were filled with tears.
"What do you think?
Am I an unknown person?
Why doesn’t everyone around me end well? "
“Everyone around you has bad outcomes?
However, I think it was better than ever before after I met you, as well as your best friend Mu Yiran, Qin Yueying, Ling Xiao, my mother... they are all people around you, and none of them will say anything because of what happened to you. Is it a good thing? "
Looking at Gu Xiwan's haggard face for a moment, Chu Lingjue's eyes were as bright as ice crystals, filled with love and affection intertwined.
He opened his white teeth and thin lips and continued,
"Fool, the more evil-hearted a person is, the more he likes to blame others for his own misfortune. But you are so cruel and brilliant, but when the people around you encounter suffering, you immediately think about whether you did it yourself. What is wrong? This will give you the illusion that you are an ominous person. This also just shows that you are kind and harmless.
So, remember, you have never done anything wrong, and you are not allowed to doubt yourself in the future. "
Gu Xiwan breathed a sigh of relief when she discovered that this kind of person who was always popular and good at giving orders to others was actually quite good at comforting others.
All right!
She remembered!
An upright person is not afraid of a slanting shadow. From now on, no matter what she does, as long as she has a clear conscience, she will never feel a trace of guilt again, no matter how tragic her actions are for those who have malicious intentions towards her.
…
Not long ago, it was Chu Lingjue who asked Qin Yueying to drive Gu Xiwan to attend the funeral.
On the way back, after Chu Lingjue answered a phone call, he said to Qin Yueying,
"I'm going to attend an important partner's wedding dinner. Find a place to park and drop me off."
"ah?"
Qin Yueying was surprised,
"Ye Di, I'll drop you off here, how are you going to go? I'd better send you there."
"No, you take my wife home and I'll figure it out myself." After saying this, Chu Lingjue opened the door and got out of the car, and closed the door.
Gu Xiwan stared blankly at Chu Lingjue outside the car, wondering what Chu Lingjue's intention was.
Qin Yueying sighed secretly,
"Wanwan, I envy you so much.
Look!
Ye Di always puts you first. He can obviously let me take him to the dinner party. He knows that you are very tired today. In order for me to take you home to rest as soon as possible, he would rather get off the car himself and call another driver. Send him away, you must remember Ye Di's kindness, and try to keep a distance from your blue-eyed fiancé in the future, so as not to make Ye Di jealous. "
this……
Gu Xiwan didn't know what to say.
Ten minutes later, Qin Yueying sent Gu Xiwan back to the beach villa.
As soon as Gu Xiwan got out of the car, the fat servant came over and said,
"Miss Gu, you are finally back. Before three o'clock this afternoon, a lawyer came to see you. When he came, the guard refused to let him in, and he refused to leave without seeing you. Let me call your mobile phone. I couldn't get through again, so I had to call Mr. Chu Lingxiao to make a decision. After Chu Lingxiao heard about it, he allowed the guard to let the lawyer in. Look, the lawyer is still waiting for you in the living room. He has been waiting for you for three days. It’s been over an hour.”
Gu Xiwan followed the direction of the fat servant's finger and saw a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes sitting at the tea table in the living room. When he saw Gu Xiwan, he hurriedly got up and walked towards Gu Xiwan.
Gu Xiwan said doubtfully,
"Did he say why he came to me?"
"I asked, but he refused to say anything. No, he's coming soon. Just ask him directly." The fat servant stepped aside as he spoke.
Seeing this strange man approaching Gu Xiwan, Qin Yueying got down and stood beside Gu Xiwan warily, in case the man had any ill intentions toward Gu Xiwan.
A few seconds later, the man had arrived in front of Gu Xiwan. He looked at Gu Xiwan carefully for a moment and then said,
"Yes, you must be the person Mr. Lu asked me to find. However, to be sure, I still want to confirm that your name is Gu Xiwan, right?"
Gu Xiwan nodded in surprise.
The man said again,
"Please tell me your ID number."
Gu Xiwan told her her ID number.
"Well, you can't be wrong."
The lawyer took out a folder from his bag and sent it to Gu Xiwan while saying,
"Miss Gu, this is what Mr. Lu left for you. Please take a look at it."
Gu Xiwan became more and more confused. She refused to accept the folder and just said cautiously,
"Who is the Mr. Lu you are talking about? What are these things?"
